I’m trying to remain optimistic, but I agree it’s not realistic.

I said the same a few times when Gio first took over and our run of games just before and right after the winter break. Nothing has changed there worryingly.

Due to the World Cup break we don’t actually have long until the January Window is open. We also have a lot of games over the next few months and if these guys aren’t fit they won’t be able to play much. Id suggest the guys that don’t want to be here like Kamara Kent and Morelos get better agents and GTFO. If Kent and Morelos don’t want to be here then they don’t play for me post January when the likes or Lowry and Matondo are fit. We will know by then if we are in a title race or not. If not throw these guys in and give them games. McCann too.

I’ll be totally honest - I take no solace in that at all. I often wonder why this team can body European teams like Dortmund, Leipzig and PSV but shit the bed v them and can’t be bothered beating hibs. There is an attitude problem here and it’s been abundantly clear for some time.

And another thing, Colak giving Juranovic a wee kiss and cuddle in the tunnel before KO. Juranovic was pushing him away staring down the tunnel no interested in that pish. Its little things like that which grind my gears.

You get a trophy for winning the league mate 😀

Trophy count is all that matters.

Except carter vickers who was 6 million, starfelt who was 5,a Kyogo who was over 4 and Jota who was over 6 yeah but 2 million pound punts when you make enough of them can go further than freebies.

Look at the outlay on transfer fees between each starting XI and subs. Money doesn’t buy success but it helps get good players.

Kent switched off for 1&3. Inexcusable.

Has Andy Scoulding left? Is that John Park guy that signed a load of donkeys for Celtic involved in our first team transfers now?

He slows every attack down imo. We need more direct players. Not someone stopping the ball, spinning and doing a couple of stopovers then trying the beat the 5 guys that tracked by while he was checking himself out in the mirror

Speaks volumes

Lundstram. We still have a 50k midfield in our entire squad. You can only raid the bargain basement for so long.

Only one of Arfield and Davis should have been kept on. Kamara should have been sold if he wanted to go as is rumoured. We still have too many players (mostly midfield) who need game time managed which is absolutely dreadful. I genuinely feared for the worst when Lundstram went down injured. Kent and Morelos are just seeing out time.

We said the same last season after they beat us easily and look what happened.

Short answer is their manager has Gio in his pocket. Our cup semi win in extra time was an anomaly

Mostly lacking in fitness and that big green grassy area. But other than that it’s fine

Can’t see any alternatives. It won’t happen immediately but it’s inevitable now.

What’s the fix?

Ah yeah forgot about him tbh.

Don’t see how as we are making plenty through European cash and transfer fees this year and last.

How many of our new signings were unavailable today through injury? Everyone bar Tillman and Ridvan?

This team were clearly saving themselves for Wednesday

Hint of the Paul Le Guen here. good in Europe terrible domestically
